We had a similar problem where we didn't want to use separate subnets for
unrestricted and restricted. We give each dorm its own class C address
scheme. We then take the 30 address of the pool as the restricted and 200
addresses as the unrestricted. In the subnet.dat we define the subnets as
follows:
Subnet/24:Name:200::
in your example
157.62.236.1/23:Building:354::
The real key to this comes in the DHCPD.conf where you can define the pools
of the restricted and unrestricted to be the exact ones you list
below. Our setup is not as fragmented but has been working fine. The only
drawback I have found is that you can't track restricted and unrestricted
usage as well as with separate subnets. Also you have to get more creative
with border security since you can't just setup a particular subnet as
non-routable. We use a Packeteer PacketShaper and just add the addresses
into a list to redirect back to NetReg. That way even if they manually
enter the DNS server they can't get anywhere.
